The new album by Maxine Funke divides into two halves – the first side is a perfect suite of the kind of beautifully constructed songs that the New Zealand-based artist has become known for, acutely observed vignettes framing her voice with a minimal backing of guitar and organ.

The second side takes off on a different flight entirely: two dreamy long form pieces built on a framework of cello, field recordings and delay, closer to Arthur Russell or the music on Brian Eno’s Obscure label than the more folky references that often get applied to Maxine’s music.

Nabihah Iqbal gave the title track an upfront radio exclusive on BBC 6 Music, commenting: “I love it because it makes me think of people like Vashti Bunyan, you feel like the person is so close to the mic because they’re almost whispering when they sing, it really draws you in, a great track.”
